Repeal: “Recognition of the General Assembly”

Security Council Resolution #359 “Recognition of the General Assembly” shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The World Assembly Security Council,
Believing in the noble intentions of this resolution in explicitly recognizing the General Assembly through the lens of this council,
However reasoning there are a few fatal flaws within this resolution that make it nonviable, such as:

  • Finding that a plethora of resolutions in the Security Council already recognize the General Assembly chamber through the form of acknowledging past GA resolutions, the most recent of such resolutions to date being SC#414 “Commend Refuge Isle” and SC#394 “Commend Cretox State”,
  • Understanding that recognizing the other chamber has always been a one-sided affair, as the SC has always recognized the GA, but the GA has never recognized the SC during the time span they had to do so, making the premise of the resolution laughable,
  • Noting that some GA ambassadors have been downright hostile to the Security Council chamber since its inception, and recognizing them and the GA itself will only bring more pain to this very council,

Discovering certain problems with the clauses of the resolution, including but not limited to:

  • The 2nd clause of the resolution, which is impractical to the purpose of the resolution, as all it does is just repeat the General Assembly’s mission statement, giving nothing that nations cannot already find out themselves,
  • In clause 5, “Full Consequences” is vague, as it does not tell us anything about what those consequences are or how they will be given out,
  • The burdensome claim that a disavowment of one chamber is a disavowment of both, which prevents perfectly fine nations from getting a commend just because they were in “non-compliance” with the GA,

Recognizing that the whole resolution is pretty much redundant and does almost nothing to benefit the SC chambers, instead mainly just stating obvious facts,
Resolving that the resolution ”Recognition of the General Assembly” shall no longer stand among others inside this august body due to its flaws, so;
Hereby Repeals SC#359 “Recognition of the General Assembly”.
